BASED ON A TRUE STORY-(YES, SERIOUSLY!!!)
With her front paws on the dashboard Poochy howled her little heart out, all the action was outside the SUV and she had been locked inside 'to keep her safe'. People bustled around outside, dressed in black and looking solemn whilst crew members ran in all directions shouting orders and requests.
Poochy was at her first film set, on location somewhere in the LA suburbs. There were new sights, new trees to sniff, new feet to lick...........she wanted to explore............instead she was locked in the car!
Her master was somewhere in the distance......but Poochy was beginning to feel the call of nature.........she needed to pee, badly!.......and whilst scratching and howling to be let out she felt a warm trickle down her litle legs.........This was bad, she was a very proud, albeit scruffy dog and she didn't want her master to be angry ...........too late........she curled into a ball and made soft little throaty cries........
An hour passed when finally one of the crew checked to see she was ok.......'Hey doggy, how you doing?'........Poochy's little head lifted off the seat.........'awe , you've had an accident, poor wee doggy.......let me clean you up'..........the gentle hands scooped Poochy off the back seat and the clean up operation began......However, here was an escape oportunity too good to miss and craftily edging her way to the door the wee mutt seized the chance to dive out to freedom.
Racing past the gravestones , the extras, milling around, and the other numerous strangers she ran to her master diving at his legs, wanting her cuddle, and as such was rewarded with his strong arms.
'Someone grab Poochy and lock her in the car for me'.......it wasn't the response she wanted and felt herself being passed to a rough set of hands. Wriggling and struggling she writhed in the strangers paws......'hey, settle down mutt!!!......'.....then feeling him lose his tight grip she jumped to the ground then ran behind a gravestone.......
'hey mutt, where are you you bloody hound????'.........The man scared her, he hadn't tickled her ears so he was probably a mean man..........she cowerd behind the stone.........and soon she was alone there........
Then out of the corner of her eye she spotted another furry body flash past.....a rabbit!!..........Poochy wanted to play and raced after the bunny...........who promptly disappeared down a hole........then looking around she saw another and another ...........soon she was barking her little lungs out, chasing bunnies down their holes and making quite a noise...............
'there you are you noisy mutt!!!'..........poochy's bum and tail/back legs were sticking out of a rabbit hole as the rough hands hauled her out........
'what the hell have you been up to'???............'Geez, there's bones everywhere, have you been digging up the bones mutt???'..........
By this point a crowd was beginning to gather........'geez look, here's a rib, there's a bit of skull.............omg.............a bit of a spine'........
Looking around the group became aware of the sight before them.........hundreds of rabbit holes, and fragments of bone dotted the area...............the bunnies had been digging up the corpses..............
................
'halt the shoot'.........came the boss's voice.........there would be legal issues to answer to here...........the director of LA cemetaries was to be called at once..................
With the arrival of a grim looking man in black the air took a serious turn.........'we'll have to get the exterminators in this afternoon, this is a grave
matter........., we'll gas them i think, yes i think that'll be appropriate, less messy than the ferrets.........
'
and with that the bunnies fate was sealed.............
Some time later Poochy looked on in bewilderment.........new faces appeared, some with cameras, some with placards with pictures of rabbits on..................people were protesting about the fate of the bunnies, people were being interviewed and the exterminators waited for the signal to begin.....................wandering over to the crowd Jim scooped up Poochy, 'what the hell is going on now?'..........it looked like an animal rights demonstration.............
'rabbit's have rights too.........!!!!!.............they should be removed humanely!!!!'...........
'i agree, what's going on???'..................he looked bewilldered............
'they're gonna gas the rabbits............they should be removed then set free!!!'................
The council mam butted in.....'they're digging up bloody bodies, the place looks like the Killing Fields'.............
Looking around Jim shook his head..........it was like the rabbit scene in Monty Python...........'right ok.......what do we need to agree on to make things good again'??
'Save the Bunnies!!!!!!'
'Respect the dead'
'Give us an inteview!!!
'OK ok.......................get the trappers in for the rabbits........get the clergy in for the bones...........and go away, no interviews'............
Filming had no option but to be cancelled ...............
Walking to the car he glanced at the argueing crowd behind him.......it really wasn't his call anyway.........he wanted people to be happy, but it was up to the crew to sort this mess out................
But who would have thought it..........cannibal bunnies????................lol.........he couldn't help but laugh as he began to drive away............
Poochy on the other hand was busy.........on the (clean leather) seat she snuffled and slurped.......
'what have you got there Poochy??'...........and reaching into her mouth he promptly pulled out a neck of femur.............
'OMG!!!!!..............what the hell???...........'............and dropping it to the floor let out a huge belly laugh..............as long as she hadn't aquired the taste for human flesh.............lol
